Hi, I get the following error while registering a node to a newly created cluster
Copy code
time="2025-08-04T10:42:07Z" level=info msg="Waiting for node to register. Either cluster is not ready for registering, cluster is currently provisioning, or etcd, controlplane and worker node have to be registered"
 time="2025-08-04T10:42:09Z" level=info msg="Waiting for node to register. Either cluster is not ready for registering, cluster is currently provisioning, or etcd, controlplane and worker node have to be registered"

 time="2025-08-04T10:42:11Z" level=info msg="Waiting for node to register. Either cluster is not ready for registering, cluster is currently provisioning, or etcd, controlplane and worker node have to be registered"
I have initiated registration for 3 nodes with the following roles: • Etcd,controlplane, worker - node 3 • Worker - node 2 • Etcd, controplane - node 1
c
Log on to the nodes and check the journald log to see why it's failing to register
d
I see that it is running in docker
We are not running as
rancher-agent.service
c
Are you using RKE? Or k3s/rke2?
RKE is eol as of August 1...
d
RKE
We are yet to upgrade
But the agent I see which is running in docker is having v2.6.12
c
That is also super old. Latest is 2.12.
d
We have a plan to upgrade it in a couple of weeks
Can you please give me some hints on how to resolve the above?
And can we upgrade directly from 2.6.12 to 2.12 ?
